Milton Unveils Canada’s First Diesel-to-Electric Bus Conversion!

Milton has reached a historic milestone in sustainable transit with the completion of Canada’s first mid-life diesel-to-electric bus conversion!

Today, Mayor Gord Krantz, Regional Councillor Colin Best, and I had the opportunity to receive an exciting project update and take the newly wrapped electric bus for its first ride. The vehicle is now preparing for road testing and high-voltage training before officially hitting the streets.

🔹 Why This Matters:✅ Eliminates tailpipe emissions, making our air cleaner ✅ Quieter rides with reduced noise and vibration ✅ More comfortable experience for passengers Extends the life of existing buses, making transit more sustainable

Once in service, this 12-metre electric bus will serve as a model for future transit innovations, positioning Milton as a leader in green transportation.
